Chapter 3: Morning Star (7th Middle School)

Prepared in accordance with standards. Each Japanese brigade had an artillery squad under it. Equipped with two 70mm Type 92 infantry guns. Sixty rounds of high-explosive ammunition moving with the artillery. Although there are not many shells . The range of artillery is also very limited. However, for the squadron that lacks countermeasures. But it's an out-and-out killer. Basically a round of rapid fire down. will be able to paralyze all the heavy fire points on the Chinese positions. All the ammunition carried with the cannon is gone. The Chinese position on the opposite side will be blown into a sea of flames. Sensei said that he would organize a counterattack again. It is very difficult to evacuate even the remaining living people safely.

Because it can play the most crucial role in every battle. The artillery units of the Japanese invaders also developed a tradition of seeing everything in the sky. Hearing the captain of the brigade, Kuniaki Kawada, order himself to suspend the launch of the artillery bombardment. Immediately they began to scream." Circuitous. Wait for the waste of the baggage team to detour back behind the enemy. We'll have to wait until sometime."

"yes. Yamaguchi-kun. How did Chief Kawada think about it. Could it be that the opposite squadron is in the ** team. Is there any big guy who has to be captured alive?"

"A total of only a hundred or so Chinese. Why bother with it.. Let's blast a dozen cannons first. You infantry took advantage of the fact that the Chinese did not dare to raise their heads and approached their positions . Wait for the shelling on our side to stop. Immediately rush into the trenches and go white-knuckle assault. How can the Chinese have time to flee again.."

"Commander isn't creating an opportunity for Staff Officer Shirakawa to make meritorious contributions... I've heard. He was a junior of the late General Shirakawa.."

How can the herald Yamaguchi have the ability to answer these nonsense questions? I was forced to ask. I had to prevaricate with my hands." Sir. Why did the sir. I. How would I know as a herald. I'm just in charge of passing the order on to you. If you don't believe me. I'll just ask Chief Kawada for myself."

"Alright. Don't even make any noise. I'll go to the chief and ask for instructions." Haruhei Ono, the head of the artillery squad, was also very uncomfortable in his heart. Stopped the talk of his men. Get up and head to the temporary headquarters. Bully the ** team lacks heavy firepower. He arranged the artillery positions very close to the front line. Three steps and two steps. I walked from the position to the temporary command post. First saluted Kawada Kuniaki. Then said loudly: "Report. Artillery firing is ready . You can deal a fatal blow to the enemy at any time."

"Hmm. Don't be in a hurry. Ono-kun. Please let the Chinese be proud for a moment." It had long been expected that the artillerymen would be dissatisfied with their orders . Kuniaki Kawada explained to his subordinates very patiently. Shirakawa-kun is leading a baggage team to make a detour to the enemy's flank and rear. To avoid being discovered by the Chinese. They need to go around in big circles."

"Heavy soldiers. Can they do it?" Haruhei Ono, who ranks as a lieutenant, did not have the courage to directly question the decision made by a Nakasa. Instead, it takes a sideways roundabout. Expressing one's point of view implicitly.

"It's not that the baggage soldiers can't take part in the battle. Just send them to the right place. It could have a surprising effect." Kuniaki Kawada frowned. Answered in a deep voice. I was a little annoyed by the troubles of the artillery squad leader Haruhei Ono." Ten minutes. Fifteen minutes maximum. They'll be able to get back into place. At that time. It's your artillery opportunity."

"Got it. The subordinates promised to let the Chinese taste hell." Haruhei Ono was keenly aware of the change in the face of his boss. Qiang smiled and said.

"Now that I understand. Just get back to where you're supposed to be. Wait patiently for my orders." Kuniaki Kawada scolded again unceremoniously. Grab the binoculars. Start observing the latest changes in the situation on the battlefield.

Since he received an order not to beat the Chinese away. Two infantry squadrons of Japanese devils. The pace of the attack has slowed down considerably. Just to avoid being seen by the ** people on the hillside. Only then did they launch an assault on the position of the squadron without a hit. Each time you can rush forward for more than 20 meters. Just pretend that you can't hold it up. Lie on the ground and wait for the next round of performances.

"These guys. It's a shame not to be a showman." I was amused by the performance of the infantry. Kuniaki Kawada pouted and shook his head. Those Chinese on the other side. I guess I really thought their Makqin was working. Let them be proud for another ten minutes. Ten minutes later. They know. When the emperor is serious. What the hell is it like?"

While watching. While silently estimating in his mind the location Shirakawa Shiro had reached. The more you count. The more I feel that the Chinese on the hillside cannot escape.

Just proud. Suddenly, there was a huge pull on the sleeve. Took his body crooked. I almost dropped my telescope on the ground.

"What's going on.. Ono-kun. Why are you still standing here?" Kuniaki Kawada was furious. Turn your head. Haruhei Ono, who was pulling the cart, questioned his sleeve.

"Over there." Haruhei Ono's face looked very pale. It's as white as a grass beaten by frost." Over there behind the hills. It seems to have a reflection."

"Which side.." Kuniaki Kawada followed Haruhei Ono's finger and looked at the way he came. Except for a few low, turquoise hills. I didn't see anything." You're not going to be dazzled, are you? In addition to the grass on the hills. Nothing."

"Something shook just now. It should be a reflection of the telescope." Haruhei Ono shook his head. Very serious to add. As the main head of the artillery unit. His eyesight has been trained to the point of perversion. Even without the help of a telescope. You can also see special objects from a distance of one or two kilometers.

"Telescopes. You mean. Is there an ambush hidden over there?" Kuniaki Kawada frowned. Hesitantly asked. From the top of the hill to the location of the baggage team. It should be at least a kilometer away. Chinese soldiers even hid in the back of the hill. Wait for them to climb over the hill and then rush down. How much stamina is left.. You wouldn't think. Oda-kun's baggage squadron. I can't even last five minutes."

"Hmm. The chief is right. Even if there are ambushes. There is not enough time. It's me who is suspicious." Ono Haruping is poor. Responded with a red face. From the top of the hill to the hideout of the baggage team. The distance is at least a thousand meters. Rush back to the baggage team's hideout from your side. The distance is about two kilometers. Count it down. Even if there are ambushes hiding on the hills. They also took the baggage team helplessly. It takes five minutes for a soldier carrying weapons and ammunition to cover a distance of a thousand meters. And when they exchanged fire with the baggage team. The reinforcements from my side have already arrived halfway through. As long as the baggage team can guarantee that it will not be wiped out by the Chinese ambush within five minutes. Waiting for the Chinese ambush. It is the end of total annihilation.

But there is no ambush. What is that reflection just now? Drooping his head and walking towards the gun position. Haruhei Ono looked back uneasily. Looks like there's something flickering again. But. But he no longer dared to assert anything. Already offended the top boss twice in a row. If you come for the third time in a day. No matter how good the boss's self-cultivation is. Today he also wants to have a bright future.

"Get on your horses. Come to me and make a whole team." It was at the place where Haruhei Ono had just seen the flash. Zhang Songling put away the binoculars. Whisper commands.

The entire plan of action of the partisans was built on his proposal. So Redbeard did not hesitate to hand over the command of this half of the battlefield to him. In order to ensure that the action is foolproof. The old man mobilized the whole team of elites. It can be said that . In addition to Zhao Tianlong and other fighters who took on the task of luring the enemy. All the people in the guerrillas who are good at riding. At this moment, they are all hidden on the hillside behind Zhang Songling. Including international camps that are not easy to use.

"Yes." Communicator Xiao Zou agreed. Trot to inform the team. Zhao Xiaoshui, the leader of the second squadron with bandages on his shoulders, stayed. I asked with some trepidation." You're a little sure. Do you want to wait a little longer. Wait for the captain's side to fight with the little devils more fiercely, and then kill them."

"No need!" Zhang Songling shook his head. While explaining. While running towards his white horse, he bent his waist." The little devil sent someone to copy the captain's back road. We must strike now. I calculated. It will take at least ten minutes for the little devil to turn around and come back. It's only a minute and a half for us to rush down."

Zhao Xiaoxuan listened. No more questioning at once. Captain Wang Hong watched the machine gun cannon fire non-stop. In fact, there are only guard squads and cooking squads of the first squadron and the brigade headquarters. There are only fifty people in total. If you are blocked by a little devil. It is absolutely impossible to break out of the encirclement on your own.

"You have wounds. Just stay in charge of liaison. After we charged. Immediately signal the captain to retreat." Zhang Songling quickly commanded again. Turn over and jump on the warhorse. Guerrilla fighters hiding behind the mountains. He was already riding his horse and slowly approached it. Behind him. Quickly formed a neat two horizontal rows.

"Keep your distance. Don't get too close to each other. Don't shoot. After climbing over the hill. Full throttle forward. Within two minutes. Our horse's hooves must step on the little devil's head. Hear no.." Zhang Songling quickly glanced back at it. Lowered his voice and commanded.

"I hear you." The Belarusian soldiers of the international squadron and the entire partisan detachment responded in unison. The voice is very low though. But it is like the roar of a beast when it wakes up.

"Let's go." Zhang Songling gently pinched the belly of the Oriental big white horse. The first to run to the mountain beam. Xiao Zou leads a squadron of cavalry. Quickly followed him. The international battalion was led by Leon Ivanov. Closely followed behind the cavalry squadron. Tag after. Further back. It is the soldiers of the 3rd Infantry Squadron and all the recruits who can wield swords on horseback. Each person pressed his right hand on the hilt under the saddle. The eyes are blazing.

From halfway up the hill to the top of the mountain. The distance of 200 meters was run by the war horse in an instant. When the terrain under your feet changes from uphill to downhill. The muscles and bones of the war horse are fully moving. Four hooves in the air. At lightning speed.

"Draw your sword." Zhang Songling didn't look back. Give the order calmly. One hundred and three Cossack sabers were raised high behind his back. It's like a phoenix that has just experienced nirvana. Bloom the splendid tail of flames in the setting sun.
